Sevilla, Paquito triumphs at home. Alonso queen of…Platinum

Playing in the FIP Platinum in Sevilla, Paquito Navarro had set himself a goal: to win the tournament at home. And paired with Lucas Bergamini, Paquito – followed by his son Fede in his arms during the award ceremony – did it: with a 7-5 6-3 victory over Alex and Victor Ruiz, Navarro gave himself a great joy, as he had not lifted a trophy since Fede’s birth. “We’re leaving here with our hearts full of happiness and confidence – said –. This is the first tournament I’ve won as a dad, and it’s wonderful”. “Paco was determined to win, and I’m very happy and excited to have accompanied him this week – added the Brazilian –. We weren’t in a great moment, but we really wanted to win”.

Ale Alonso and Claudia Jensen, queens of the women’s tournament thanks to their 7-6 6-3 victory over Aranzazu Osoro and Veronica Virseda, also wanted to win against two players who will play with Victoria Iglesias and Marina Guinart respectively from next week in Germany. For the Spanish, this is the third FIP Platinum title of her career, after the two she won in Mexico between November 2024 and March 2025; Jensen, on the other hand, had already won last year in Marbella. “We played in an incredible atmosphere – admitted Ale –. It was a great week for us, given the level we reached”. “It’s really nice to play in front of this crowd – added Claudia –. The final was very tough, but tomorrow we’ll recover and then think about Germany”. For Navarro, Bergamini, Alonso and Jensen, 300 points in the FIP ranking and a weekend of great happiness.
